Kathy Bates Clarifies Recent Retirement Comments

Kathy Bates Clarifies Recent Retirement Comments

Rumors began to swirl earlier this month that the Oscar-winning actor was planning to call it quits after the “Matlock” reboot.

Kathy Bates isn’t moving on from Hollywood just yet.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly at Sunday’s Emmy Awards, Bates took time to clarify recent comments she’d made in reference to her forthcoming role in the CBS reboot of “Matlock” that led many to believe she was retiring from acting.

Though the Emmy and Oscar winner didn’t deny that the role of Madeline “Matty” Matlock would be her final one, she said she’d happily play it for years to come if the new series is successful.

“What I meant was, I had one foot out the door until I read the script for ‘Matlock,‘” she explained. “And then I read ‘Matlock’ and I said, ‘Ooooooookay, close the door. We’re gonna do some more.’ I want it to run for years. It’s that great.”

Bates shared similar sentiments in a separate interview with Deadline.
